Abstract: A system for removing sediment from water is disclosed. The exemplary embodiments described herein disclose a system with a chamber having a deck positioned inside to divide it into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The deck may have a plurality of holes to hold filtration elements and also may have a ridge or a skirt or both. The filtration elements may be filter cartridges with multiple elongated filter elements that extend down into the lower chamber.

Abstract: A system and method for real-time viewing, ordering, and scheduling deliveries of alcoholic beverages by retailers from databases of updated available inventories from distributors or producers. The system and method also include real-time viewing of alcoholic beverage inventory vacancies of retailers and bidding to file the vacancies by distributor or producers.

Abstract: A suction unit is placed inside the handle of a laryngoscope to allow portable suction to be utilized during intubation without requiring multiple devices. The suction tip can be attached to the distal end of the laryngoscope blade. Replacing the light on a laryngoscope with an LED allows for a small watch-sized battery to be used instead of current large batteries taking up the handle space. This opens up the handle space to make room for the suction unit. Evacuated fluids and discharge exit into a tube and into a portable receptacle.

Abstract: A combination storage and tread unit has a housing which is installed beneath a second row of seating in an automotive vehicle body. The housing has a tread pad at each end which a person can step on to reach a third row of seating when a seat in the second row is tumbled forwardly. The housing has tow module-receiving compartments for storing electrical control modules and related wiring. The compartments are covered and protected by the second row of seating when the seats in the second row are in a normal occupant-supporting position, but are readily accessible when the seats are tumbled forwardly, so that the modules may be removed and serviced without removing the seats.

The housing has a tread pad at each end which a person can step on to reach a third row of seating when a seat in the second row is tumbled forwardly. The housing has two module-receiving compartments for storing electrical control modules and related wiring. The compartments are covered and protected by the second row of seating when the seats in the second row are in a normal occupant-supporting position, but are readily accessible when the seats are tumbled forwardly, so that the modules may be removed and serviced without removing the seats.

Abstract: A technique of using an electronic device to change light into the facsimile of an image. Signals are generated, indicative of the image shape. An array of electro optical devices are transformed based on the image signals, and those devices are used to transform the light characteristics.

Abstract: Vehicle storage and ventilation systems are provided. A first system comprises a body including at least one lumen formed therein. A first lumen includes a ventilation lumen for allowing airflow therethrough. A second lumen includes a storage lumen. A lid member is moveable from a closed position substantially covering the storage lumen, to an open position substantially clear of the storage lumen. The ventilation lumen provides a transverse airflow pathway from a first vehicle side to a second vehicle side. A second system comprises means for transverse airflow from a first vehicle side to a second vehicle side, load floor means, and storage means including lid means.

Abstract: A process for preparing a particulate vinyl polymer resin and vinyl polymer resin derived therefrom wherein, comprising polymerization in the presence of a dispersant or graft dispersant having no ionic side groups, optionally containing terminal functional groups, said dispersant is derived from repeating units of .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated ester(s) of acrylic and/or methacrylic acid and having a molecular weight average of from about 500 to about 50,000.

Abstract: Vinyl halide polymer compositions exhibiting reduced gas permeability are described which comprise a mixture of(a) at least one vinyl halide polymer; and(B) from about 1 to about 40 parts by weight per 100 parts of vinyl halide polymer (A) of at least one olefinic nitrile polymer.The vinyl halide polymers preferably are vinyl chloride homopolymers and copolymers, and the olefinic nitrile polymers are copolymers of an olefinically unsaturated nitrile such as acrylonitrile and one or more monomers from the group of conjugated dienes, monoolefins, olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid esters, and vinyl aromatic compounds. The olefinic nitrile polymer can be chosen or manufactured to have a refractive index which is similar to the refractive index of the vinyl halide polymer thereby resulting in a more transparent composition.
